Weak Rebellion
Chapter 28
Because of the presence of old people and children, the banquet for the three of them ended early. Jiang Mingkang can't drink, his cheeks are flushed, and his eyes are shining.Back on the second floor, he asked Xu Lang, "Brother Xu, what do you think of me going to the mountains to contract tea plantation in the mountains?"
Just now when I mentioned the matter of buying a house with Gu Shan, he thought why he didn’t enclose a piece of land as well. It probably won’t cost much to contract the land behind his grandfather’s house. After a few years, even if he doesn’t grow tea, the whole Planting trees is also very profitable.Now the country is not very strict about tree harvesting. In ten years, the country will be strict about tree harvesting. This big tree will be before. If he plants a quick-growing poplar now, he will have nothing to worry about in a few years. If you collect money, you will receive soft hands.
Even if he doesn't plant trees, he can quickly build a whole row of holiday houses at the foot of the mountain while letting him build a house now, and it would be good to open a resort in the future.
"You're not going to college, so you're growing tea?" Xu Lang kept staring at him. Jiang Mingkang couldn't hold his alcohol, and he was a little confused after a few glasses of beer. At this moment, he didn't notice that Xu Lang's eyes were about to burst into flames.
"Come on, I don't need to grow tea myself, my grandfather does."
"Your grandfather is quite old, and you asked him to grow tea for you."
"Can't I hire someone? Let him watch for me." Jiang Mingkang said unconvinced.
"Then where did you get the money to contract the mountain?"
"Uh, let my dad invest, and I'll pay him dividends in the future." Jiang Mingkang pulled his dad out again, he had contracted the mountain land.
"Wait until you wake up." Xu Lang said angrily. He didn't expect Jiang Mingkang to drink so little, but fortunately, the wine was good. He didn't yell when he drank too much, and he didn't go crazy with alcohol. On the contrary, He's not very well-behaved, but he talks too much.
"I didn't drink too much." Jiang Mingkang stood up and took two steps while talking.He looked quite normal when he was not walking, but when he stood up, it was as if he had no bones, and he was really soft.
"Oh, why is the ground so uneven?" Jiang Mingkang asked in a daze.
Xu Lang lost his temper. This person looked quite normal just now, how could he become drunk after only a few words?
"Let's go, I'll help you to wash up and go to bed quickly. The exam will be in two days, and I haven't seen you reviewing, so be careful to fail."
"I'm not afraid of failing the exam. With my little brain, I can go directly to the graduation exam." Jiang Mingkang was confused, chirping and pulling Xu Lang to talk.Fortunately, he is obedient, Xu Lang asks him to do whatever he wants, he will do it weirdly, he has a good personality like a five-good student, he brushes his teeth when asked to brush his teeth, washes his face when asked to wash his face, and stands under the shower head when asked to take a bath, holding the shower head for a while. Suddenly rushed.
This time Xu Lang behaved himself, instead of going into the shower room, he watched from outside.He was afraid that he would not be able to control himself for a while and would do something drastic.
"Brother Xu, aren't you coming to take a bath?" A pair of wet eyes looked at Xu Lang innocently, Xu Lang only felt a bang in his head and lost his sanity.
"Mingkang, you told me to go in." Xu Lang's voice was low and dangerous, which Jiang Mingkang had never heard before.
"Well, come in, take a shower and sleep."
Xu Lang was not polite, he took off his clothes and went in to take a bath with Jiang Mingkang. The wound on his arm was healed, but the scar from the stitches could still be seen, like a ferocious centipede lying on his arm.Xu Lang stroked the red mark lightly with his fingers, thinking that letting the two brothers of the Zheng family sit in prison for more than ten years was really cheap for them, so they should also leave such a scar on their bodies.
Jiang Mingkang is very obedient, he will do whatever Xu Lang asks him to do, he simply took a bath, Xu Lang was already bubbling with fever, he didn't dare to play around with him, sent him to the bedroom, and hurried back to solve it by himself That whole body is on fire.
The next day Jiang Mingkang woke up naked in his bed. It was a bit cold, and when the blanket was lifted, he shivered, and the confusion just now disappeared.What happened to him, he was naked?I looked around the room, but I didn't have any clothes of my own.Feel the body, it's fine, nothing unusual.
Wrapped in a quilt, he looked for clothes in the closet to put on, and Jiang Mingkang went to the living room awkwardly.He drank a little too much yesterday, and he can't remember what happened after he went back upstairs.
"Mingkang has woken up. Come and have dinner together. Your share is in the pot, and I'll serve it for you." Today's breakfast was made by Xu Lang. The millet porridge boiled in the rice cooker and Jiang Mingkang's homemade kimchi were also cooked. A simple sandwich that looks pretty hearty.
"Well, Brother Xu, did I drink too much yesterday? Did I do anything strange?" Jiang Mingkang was not sure. He was afraid that he would drink too much yesterday and would be bold if he faced a handsome guy like Xu Lang. Will say some strange things.
"It's okay, you just kept dragging me to take a bath together, and I lost my temper if I didn't take a bath with you." Xu Lang looked at Jiang Mingkang calmly, his lips curled up slightly, full of smiles.He was tortured by Jiang Mingkang last night, he could only watch and couldn't eat, he was so choked to death.
"Ah, is my wine so bad?" Jiang Mingkang said unconfidently.His alcohol capacity is average, he used to pay attention every time he went out, not to let himself drink too much.There was really no way around it, he just played around with that little drink, and basically knew nothing with Fang Kai.
"It's okay." Xu Lang told the truth, he felt that Jiang Mingkang's small drinking capacity was quite cute.
Jiang Mingkang sat down to have breakfast, and Xu Lang continued to ask, "Yesterday you said that you wanted to contract to grow tea in the mountains. Could it be true? It's not talking gibberish after drinking."
"Well, I really have an idea. I have a classmate who has quite good tea seedlings at home. I thought that it is cheaper to contract land now. Why don't I also contract a piece of land and plant tea first. If the income is not good, I will plant all the trees. .”
"You are really capable of tossing around." Xu Lang sighed a little in his heart. Jiang Mingkang is only old this year, but he has a lot of ideas. He thought that this might have something to do with his family. It's not bad, and he has some money. With his current status, he doesn't have to work so hard to make money.It is probably because his parents remarried after their divorce and brought him a younger brother. He was under pressure to prove that he was better than his younger brother and to impress his father.
"Work hard while I'm young, and when I get older, I don't have the courage to contract a mountain land. This mountain land can be contracted for 70 years." Jiang Mingkang said.
"If there is anything useful to me, just say it."
"Don't worry Brother Xu, I won't let you grow tea for me."
Jiang Mingkang really wanted to contract the mountain land. He went back to his grandfather's house on the weekend and asked about it. He didn't expect that the mountain land behind his grandfather's house would really be contracted out.The village has shouted on the loudspeaker several months ago, but now the young and middle-aged people in their village have already moved out, and the people who stay in the village are all grandparents, who dare not touch the contract that will take 70 years mountain.
When Grandpa Jiang heard that Jiang Mingkang wanted to contract to grow tea in the mountains, he also disagreed.This kind of tea can be a physical labor. His grandson has been spoiled since he was a child, so how can he grow tea?
"Grandpa, I don't come here for this kind of tea myself, I also have to hire people. In the future, there will be a large mountainous area behind, and I will build a mountain villa. At that time, this tea garden will be just a gimmick, and people will come to stay and eat to make money. "Jiang Mingkang recalled that there seemed to be a resort built here in his previous life, but it was not on their side of the mountain.
"As far as our mountainous land is concerned, we are still building a villa. It would be nice to build a restaurant like your elder brother's." Grandpa Jiang said.The mountainous land behind his house is not small. In the past, chestnuts and persimmons were planted in the village, but they all turned yellow due to neglect of management. There are tea plants in the nearby village, but they are not on a large scale. Just an acre of land.
Now that Jiang Mingkang said that he wanted to contract the large area of the back mountain to grow tea, he felt that it was unreliable. He needed to sort out the land for tea planting, so where would he find the manpower.The road on this mountain is also not good, and there is no way to get on a car, so we can only use a small wheelbarrow to transport tea, which is a hassle.
Grandpa Jiang continued to persuade, "Mingbao, where do you get the money to contract the mountain land? It doesn't cost much in the early stage, but in the later stage, it's not all money for you to grow tea, build roads, and hire people."
"My dad can help me with some, and my mother will give me some, plus I have a vegetable business all the time, and I can make some money. These are enough for the time being." Jiang Mingkang made a plan for his dad in advance. He said hello, but his father didn't agree, but he still gave some money as an investment, and he didn't expect his son to make a lot of money for him, let him play around for a few years, and still go to work in his company after graduation.He heard from the manager of the freight forwarding department that Jiang Mingkang has done a good job in the freight forwarding department and can already handle the daily affairs of the freight forwarding department directly.
"Have you and your mother been in touch recently?" Grandpa Jiang asked when he heard that his ex-daughter-in-law had also contributed money.He has always had a good impression of Zhang Wan. In his opinion, Zhang Wan has simply outshone Zheng Baoqin by a few blocks.
"Well, there have been calls all the time. My mother said that she will not come back this year for the New Year, and the work there is very busy." Jiang Mingkang felt a little uncomfortable when he mentioned his mother. Why didn't his mother come back for the New Year? It was his father who hurt her, which broke her mother's heart and made her not want to come back.
"Work is important. I understand. You should come to grandpa's house for the new year this year. In previous years, your grandma and I spent it by ourselves. This year, we will be more lively when you come over." Grandpa Jiang said.
Mr. Jiang has many sons and daughters, but none of them live in the village. They all have their own small families. They used to come back every Chinese New Year. Later, everyone was busy and people became more and more uneven. He simply let his sons and daughters There is no need to come back specially for the Chinese New Year, just wait for the New Year to come back when you have time.So every New Year's Eve, there are only the old couple in the family, and the children come back one after another after the third year of junior high school.
"I think so too. I will spend the Chinese New Year with grandpa in the future." Jiang Mingkang understood his grandfather's intention very well. He was afraid that during the Chinese New Year he would feel uncomfortable, and that home was no longer his.
"This year, your great-grandpa's family will also go back to their hometown for the New Year. A few days ago, he asked me to clean his village house. This time, the whole family will come back together, so they may have to stay for a while." Grandpa Jiang said.
Jiang Mingkang's great-grandpa was Grandpa Jiang's elder brother. He made a fortune by smuggling abroad in the early years, and later built a three-story small building in the village. This small building was the only small western-style building in their village.It's just that after the small western-style building was built, he didn't live in it a few times. His great-grandfather's family has always lived abroad, and he usually only comes back once every two or three years to visit the house.He was afraid that the small western-style building would be damaged if it was empty for a long time, so he asked Grandpa Jiang to help take care of it. He would send a sum of money back every two years to rest and renovate the house.Hearing what grandpa said today, his great-grandpa probably wants to return to China to live permanently. After all, he is getting older, and his thoughts of returning to his roots will become more and more intense.
Just now when I mentioned the matter of buying a house with Gu Shan, he thought why he didn’t enclose a piece of land as well. It probably won’t cost much to contract the land behind his grandfather’s house. After a few years, even if he doesn’t grow tea, the whole Planting trees is also very profitable.Now the country is not very strict about tree harvesting.
